12 schools’ pupils gifted with school bags, supplies
NGCP’s ‘GAMIT NI BULILIT
LABRADOR—The grade school pupils of 12 public schools in Pangasinan received school bags with assorted school supplies from “National Grid Corp. of the Philippines’ (NGCP) Gamit ni Bulilit” Program.
Melma Batario, NGCP’s regional communications and public affairs officer, said the recipient schools were Cabangaran Elementary School and Nampalkan-Molina Elementary School in Umingan; Cabaritan Elementary School and San Bonifacio Elementary School in San Manuel, Aristan-Bantog Elementary School and San Vicente Elementary School in Asingan, Bued Elementary School in Binalonan, Malimpin Elementary School and Petal Elementary School in Dasol, Sta. Rita Elementary School in Mabini, Bongalon Elementary School in Labrador and Tebag Elementary School in San Carlos City.
Batario said the school bags contained 10 notebooks with design on safety tips/ reminders and three pencils in a box.
The selected schools were recommended by NGCP’s operations and maintenance group.
Batario said the project, earlier pegged as “Balik Eskwela,” is on its 7th year.
The beneficiaries in the “Balik Eskwela” were from kindergarten to Grade 6 but “Gamit ni Bulilit” limited beneficiaries to Grades 1 and 3 pupils only.
During the distribution, the kids and their parents were provided tips how to save on electricity and safe use of electricity.
The NGCP’s “Gamit ni Bulilit” distributes school bags to some 450 schools yearly.
Meanwhile, the mother of Jocelyn Abubon, Grade 2 pupil, said she waited for NGCP’S project in order to save on expenses while King Jay Manaois, and his cousin, Mica Manaois, both Grade 1 pupils were profuse in thanking NGCP for their new school bags.
NGCP is a privately owned corporation that operates, maintains, and develops the country’s power grid. (Eva Visperas)
